I think the 6-inch knife for taping is way overhyped

I switched to using a 5-inch knife for taping flat joints about a year ago after a guy in Tucson showed me how it gives better control on the mud. Everyone swears by the 6-inch, but I've been getting fewer bubbles and faster finishes since I changed. Anybody else ditch the standard sizes?

Lol it's just drywall mud bro. Not that deep.

Nah man, the details matter if you want it to look clean.
